h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

They'll basque in the sun no more.

So Holmes and Watson were at home reading when Holmes looks up from the paper and says, "My brother Mycroft was crushed to death today in California."
Watson jumps up and says sympathetically, "I'm so sorry, how did it happen?"
And Holmes replied, "It was a lemon tree, my dear Watson. A lemon tree!"

One night, when there was nothing much to
do, Sherlock Holmes proposed playing a new
game he had just brought home. So Watson invited
Mrs. Hudson (the landlady) in, and they waited
for Sherlock to get the game out of the closet.

When he opened the box and pulled out a mannequin's
leg, they expressed surprise.

"You should not be so puzzled," Sherlock told
them calmly. "Haven't I told you many times the
the game is afoot?"

I bet Mrs. Hudson would be a shoe-in.

Holmes was always one for pulling your leg.

100% Roadkill!

Now if Holmes had made a joke about legs, it would have been .....





A limb entry, my dear Watson ......

ha-HA *giggles* *chuckles* *gafaws* *explosive laughter* *maniacal laughter* *gasps for air* **faints**

...*bends over Mr C...pokes him in the side with her bare foot...*
Apsrins! Buy two, get on free.

I never realised that this would cause such dramatic effects.

Been to the other Festivities?? I haven't as my server is the pits.

Now......if my server were Brad Pitt......that would be an entirely new ball game. So to speak.

My computer's being a joker, it's ta-king ages to get anywhere.

It's good to be the King!

If we run out of milk it will be udderly disappointing.

Jussss keep someon hand.
...*milking it for all it's worth...*

*puts some card-amon in his tea"

That should get the ol' Model Tea up and running!

Did you hear the one about the retired clockmaker
who got bored and tried putting extra hands on his clocks?
When he showed his wife what he had done, however, she
said, "You idiot! You have way too many hands on your time!"

He should obviously learn when to clock off and tick some time away from home.

I think it was right of his wife to chime in like that. Next thing we know, he could be gong gong gone.

Time flies like an arrow.... Fruit flies like a banana.

It's true, he was a bit of a fanatick, he cog have just snapped.

But I agree with you, and I think it's very romantick.

I wonder if she took his face in her hands and whispered penduously.
